Siesta Key Travel Guide

 tvdandy Says:  What is nice about the nightlife in Siesta Key is that all the bars are walking distance in Siesta Village. Many open air pubs with live reggae music streaming out. Very fun, but not out of control, this has a much more relaxed vibe compared to Miami Beach 

 tvdandy Says:  A good way to kill a afternoon or evening is to stroll Siesta Village. This is about a 4 block radius, so an easy walk. Here you will find your standard surf shops, coffeehouses, restaurants with outdoor seating, open air bars built in that classic old school Florida style... 

 tvdandy Says:  90% of the reason to go to Siesta Key is the beach. As I said, I cannot emphasize enough how soft and cool the white sands feel on your feet even during the hottest days. The public beach has about 800 parking spaces, so get there early. 

 tpangelinan Says:  If Siesta Beach is too full the ncheck out Turtle Beach, another beautiful beach here on Siesta Key. Lots of parking, clean water and beach, perfect. Turtle Beach is located near the south end of the island. 

 tpangelinan Says:  If you like shelling you will have good luck here. The beaches here are great to take a walk and pick up shells so bring a bag with you. if you have little ones this is a great way to keep them busy, bring several bags! 

 tpangelinan Says:  Siesta Beach is one of the most perfect beaches we have been to. The beautiful white sand is 99% pure quartz which not your normal crushed coral & shells or rock sand. It very soft, ground finer then sugar and people have said it never get hot. The waves are very calm, great... 

 NatureGurl Says:  We stumbled upon this wine shop in the Siesta Village last weekend and they have daily wine tastings of really different types of wines: like mango, pineapple, even carrot. It sounds like it wouldn't be good - but it really was - and I normally don't like fruity wines. We...

 HotSpotJ Says:  Went here on Saturday, had a good time,drinks were not too pricey, this club is not on the Key, its about a mile off of the South bridge on Clark. And, by the time you read this, as clubs go, it might be gone. Beach attire, though I would try to dress up a little if nothing... 

 NatureGurl Says:  This wine shop has a tropical-beach theme with tropical music playing in the background. There's a beautiful lighted large mermaid fountain in the back corner that's a must see. Tropical and citrus wines, ports, sherry's. Mixes for smoothies and sangria. Tropical fruit... 

 zrim Says:  This is the view from my parents' porch. They reside on the intracoastal side of the key. Not as noisy and boisterous as the gulf side. Personally, I favor the views of the intracoastal because there are always boats trolling up and down the waterway. 

 zrim Says:  Building has been booming ever since I first visited Siesta Key in 1973. Each time there is a new highrise that is fancier than all the rest. Some condominiums are now selling at a price that exceeds $1,000,000. That's a lot of dough for an ocean view.
